More about the Lead Renovator, Repair, and Painting Rule:

Effective April 22, 2010, anyone who performs renovations, repairs, or painting in pre-1978 housing or child-occupied facilities must be Lead Safe Certified with the EPA or EPA-authorized lead program. Individuals and firms that are not certified could face fines of up to $37,500 per day.

The RRP law applies if your project disturbs:

More than 6 square feet of interior painted surface AND/OR

More than 20 square feet of exterior painted surface

Companies performing this type of work must be registered as a Lead Safe Firm with the EPA ($300 fee) or an EPA-authorized state (fees vary), and at least one person on the actual job site must be a Certified Renovator, which is achieved by taking the 8-hour Lead Renovator Initial Certification Course. Renewal of this training course is required every 5 years by the EPA. Individuals certified in an EPA-authorized state may be required to renew earlier than every 5 years, so check with your state Lead Based Paint regulation program for details.

Please note: this product is sent via Fedex
to your mailing address and will not be delivered in class.
Please allow 3-5 days for shipping.

The RRP Project Binder & Tutorial is perfect for
compiling and retaining all required documents to be in compliance
with the EPA Renovation Repair and Painting Rule (40 CFR Part 745).
The Binder is the essential tool for step-by-step instructions on
"how to" complete forms and letters that are included in the
Renovation Repair and Painting Rule Project Binder. It is
recommended that each renovation project retain a Project Binder &
Tutorial on-site for the duration of the project. The Project
Binder is to be retained after the completion of the project for a
period of three years, accessible by the EPA for possible
spontaneous audit.

The Environmental Protection Agency has begun enforcement of lead-related issues within the residential construction industry. Reports of violations and fines are being released constantly. The primary violation is non-compliance of required paperwork.
